G16e Questions (wires and installing something)
Hello! I picked up a new-to-me G16e. After some looking, I can tell its CGTech's favorite! I need to get a new Key switch, and while looking under the front, I see 4 wires....two of which I believe go to the key switch, but looking at the wiring schematic, I don't see these for anything. Can anyone help identify them? I know the ones on the ground go to the key switch, but the ones in my hands, where do they go?
Next - I need to reinstall these two pieces in the compartments. I don't quite understand how to get the screw inside the rubber piece. I "think" the big round circle and the square goes inside the hole? Any tips there? |

Additionally - the brake pedal. When depressed - it doesn't seem to want to come back to the normal driving position - What would cause it to stay down?

The spring that pushes the pedal back up has rusted out. It's not too hard to replace as long as the pivot bolt will slide out (not rusted in). Not sure about the 2 other things. Not even sure what the black plastic thing is, or where it came from.

The black plastic things go inside the storage holes to prevent stuff from falling out!

Ok, so it's like molded rubber. And those anchors are ripped out, they will be very difficult to put back in place. Might just want to screw the anchor to the rubber & move on. I'm thinking the pink & black wires were for the reverse buzzer...

Re: G16e Questions (wires and installing something)
Also. Does anyone know what size nuts go in the studs to hold the S1, etc cables down on the GE motor? The nut I pulled off doesn’t seem to go all the way on, and the nut doesn’t seem to match anything I could find!

Re: G16e Questions (wires and installing something)
Alright - its entirely possible I am stupid here. But I need some help.....
Here is the two wires to the key switch.... I found this diagram that traces the power..... the red wire should have power, and then when the key is switched to on, it bridges to the brown wire. At least that's my understanding......however, when I put my meter on the red wire - and on the negative of a battery terminal, I get 0V. But if I put my meter on the brown wire, and then the negative of the battery terminal, I get voltage. How am I having voltage at the brown, but not the red?! |

Re: G16e Questions (wires and installing something)
I think that connector you're holding goes to the Forward/Reverse rocker switch that mounts next to the key switch. there's only two switches/electrical components in the dash, the key switch and FNR switch. There might be a backup beeper in there but they're usually under the seat on a G16e. The diodes are also under the seat near the controller. Not up in the dash.

Re: G16e Questions (wires and installing something)
Just to follow up here - I couldn't find the problem. Took the cart into a shop - and they confirmed that one wire coming off the solenoid was a problem and was stopping the solenoid from working. Additionally, the FNR switch was bad so it was replaced. Cart now works 100%!
